Medicine in Microecology

Scope

Human commensal microbes have a tremendous impact on our health and diseases, but we are at the very early stage towards the application of microecology in medicine. Medicine in Microecology aims to be one of the leading journals promoting researches involving microbiome and medicine from methodology, basic research to translational medicine. The journal is a peer-reviewed, open access journal. It publishes original papers relating to bioinformatics and biotechnologies, microbiome/host interaction modeling and mechanisms studies, surveys and clinical trials. Studies on different types of microbes (bacteria, fungi, virus, phages etc.) on different body sites (gut, oral cavity, lung, skin, genital tract etc.) and their relationships with various diseases (gastrointestinal diseases, metabolic diseases, cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune diseases, neurological diseases etc.) are welcomed. Article types accepted include, but are not limited to, original research articles, reviews, case reports, short communications and editorials. Medicine in Microecology is an Official Journal of Southern Medical University.
